A Herman Miller Embody. It was too much money for me, but I can’t go back to cheap chairs now. My back is messed up after diving off a boat many years ago. I could sit in my old chair for about ten minutes before it started giving me searing pain. I can sit in the embody for about an hour before I need to get up and stretch, but my back doesn’t hurt from sitting in it at all. It was a pain to configure, plus it needs RMA work, but I can recommend getting a nice chair if your back pain is interrupting your work.

Just curious if the work yours needs is related to the armrests? I began having issues with the ones on my Embody after a couple years and upon researching it seems to be a common issue.
